Xi3® Makes Scalability a Breeze

Xi3 Corporation offers a patented architecture that allows true processing scalability, making replacement unnecessary.

The need for increased computing power increases every day. Unfortunately, today’s computer design makes it impractical and costly to upgrade, add to or subtract from in order to improve performance.

As a result, current processing systems are replaceable, but are not expandable. Unfortunately, historical computer design makes it impractical and costly to modify most computers. Additionally, when one component dies, it usually takes down the rest of the system, significantly effecting productivity.

Until now, the traditional computing model has not been designed to easily or effectively work in multiple environments or perform multiple applications. Unfortunately, it is simply not practical to add, subtract, move, or upgrade processors within most computers because of cost and time loss considerations.

This represents a substantial and ongoing cost for companies, especially those facing unplanned technology changes, and the resulting sudden or inevitable hardware replacement or failure.

A new structural and design standard for computers

Through its Xi3® Computer Architecture, Xi3 Corporation delivers a design structure that allows multiple processing units to be chained together – added or subtracted as dictated by application or user demands. Added processing cores work together with the original processor to increase power and function exponentially.

Additionally, individual processing cores serve to back up each other, eliminating a single point of failure for the system. If one processor crashes, the functionality is re-routed and processing continues.

For example, upgrades and new developments in software strain and eventually exceed the processing capabilities of personal computers and workstations every few years. When this happens, the only real option is to replace the entire machine with a newer, faster one. In addition to time and cost considerations, the average consumer is simply not experienced enough to upgrade an older computer. That's why it's often cheaper and easier "just buy new" — unless you use Xi3.

Likewise, manufacturers today are hindered by the non-scalable nature of current hardware designs. As a result, these manufacturers have to constantly discard obsolete hardware designs as they move to create the next, processing-heavy generation of their products.

Conversely, Xi3 provides partners with a scalable solution that enables the processing capabilities to scale as user or application demands increase. Additional cores can easily be added and coupled together in a network-like environment, allowing additional processing capabilities within the system (or at the subsystem level) to satisfy the new requirements.

On a larger scale, the ability to add new cores to existing ones provides IT managers and manufacturers with the flexibility to grow and build a successful infrastructure, rather than completely replace it every few years. At all price points, across all markets, Xi3 provides unlimited scalability into the future.
